I had family home over the weekend and wasn't able to get online.
I've also been trying to cram 5 days of work into 3... work has been exceptionally grueling lately.
I will be glad to post them tonight if you'd like.
If I don't chat w/ you before, then, have a most excellent Thanksgiving, and may God bless you & your family.

Let's catch up before Christmas and trade some secrets.
Have a most wonderful Thanksgiving and enjoy your family, friends, and countrymen.
8 oz. turkey, preferably white meat
10-15 oz. White Zinfandel
High-carb fixins, such as stuffing and potatoes
Instructions:
Consume ingredients. Slump onto sofa to watch football. Pass out.
Repeat as necessary all weekend long.
Up at six and start drinking.
Drive to local high school football game.
Rave and rant with all the guys you played high school football with forty years ago.
At games end, adjourn to the local watering hole for more drinks and discussion of why your team forty years ago would put today's pu$$y kids to shame.
Take cab home.
Slobber down dinner and as many more drinks as possible.
Throw up.
Fall asleep on the couch (father-in-law gets the recliner)
Miss all the pro football.
Wake up in time for turkey and more drinks.
Pray that either you or one of the guys you played high school football with forty years ago remembers where your damn car is.
Thankfully we're staying home this year!
How come I couldn't find this when I did "Search" and serached for the word Thanksgiving??

Who is deep frying his turkey tomorrow!
Ed - if you get a chance, fry two birds and freeze one. Drop some hot dogs and anything else you can find in the frier after the turkey is done - it's a crowd pleaser!
Excellent idea!
Do you think Freepers will have a Thanksgiving thread this year, or is last year's good enopugh?
See ya',
Ed
My tradition personally is to feast on wine, carbs and bird and slide blissfully into an alco-tryptophanic coma on the sofa watching bad football.
Have a great Thanksgiving
If you're in a rush, defrost the turkey in your dishwasher. In a plastic covering, of course. Then toss it into the oven. Call it the turkey obstacle course:)
Shake, Bake, and BBQ
But, if you defrost the turkey in the dishwasher, you can use the same big pan to cook it in the oven until it smells nice, which means ignoring it for an hour while doing other things. It's called efficiency:)
Thanks, you too!
